"fairly" have been proposed. If you say N here, you will get the standard packet scheduler, which is a FIFO (first come, first served). If you say Y here, you will be able to choose from among several alternative algorithms which can then be attached to different network devices. This is useful for example if some of your network devices are real time devices that need a certain minimum data flow rate, or if you need to limit the maximum data flow rate for traffic which matches specified criteria. This code is considered to be experimental. To administer these schedulers, you'll need the user-level utilities from the package iproute2+tc at <ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/net/ip-routing/>. That package also contains some documentation; for more, check out |
